Entropy is the
measure of the disorder
in a system. When energy
transforms from one form to
another, it goes toward greater
disorder, therefore greater entropy!
What does all of that mean? Does it mean that things have a natural drive to get messy? Or that entropy increases as enegy transforms such as the enegy of the sun is absorbed by trees and the trees produce oxygen and that is absorebed by humans and humans produce CO^2 and so on? Would that cycle constitute as increasing entropy?
CAn someone explain?
